Sometimes, what women want is your presence. Neither diamonds nor money..
Kalau ada beberapa pria yang menganggap wanita butuh dirinya semata-mata untuk materi. Saya harus bilang itu salah besar.
Kadang, ada disaat dibutuhkan, just-your-presence, nilainya jauh lebih berharga daripada uang maupun berlian.
Dan pergi sama wanita itu nggak harus ke tempat yang fancy, classy dan expensy-(ve)..
If you like to cook, cook for her. That worth more than those classy restos or bistros.
Beberapa pria masih saja beranggapan bahwa semua wanita itu sama. Dudes, open your eyes!
Don't forget to appreciate others.
Say "thank you" or "sorry" *this you have to mean it* when needed.. ☺
Bisous,

The fact has torn my heart
Entah bagaimana caranya saya "berjodoh" dengan "pengetahuan" seperti itu.
Tetapi yang jelas saya bersyukur bisa tahu dan berbagi cerita disini.
Telinga ini terbelalak mengetahui tentang kenyataan pahit yang harus dialami banyaknya gadis yang masih dibawah umur. Dan sadly, orang tua mereka sangat mendukung.
Mengantarkan mereka ke tangan para mucikari. Umur gadis-gadis itu berkisar antara 13-15 tahun.
Yang pada usia itu pengetahuan saya tentang dunia seperti itu masih 0 (nol) besar. Jaman-jamannya nge-mall dan having fun sama teman-teman sekolah.
I consider myself lucky. Hal kecil yang sebelumnya nggak pernah terpikir untuk dapat disyukuri.
Rata-rata mereka berasal dari daerah yang sama dari daerah di Jawa Barat. Yang apparently, kebanyakan anak gadis dari daerah itu memang sudah "bekerja" ke Jakarta dari usia yang not even legal yet. The fact has torn my heart.
Kebanyakan orang tua mereka mendapatkan "uang antar" dari setiap anak gadis yang diantar bekerja disana. Sekitar 8 - 10 juta rupiah. Lalu? Anak gadis merekalah yang nantinya akan "bekerja" demi melunasi uang yang telah diterima orang tuanya.
Mungkinkah para orang tua itu sudah tidak mengenal kata 'tega'?
Bisa-bisanya "menggadaikan" anak gadis mereka demi hasrat mereka untuk membeli motor, dll, tanpa beban.
Salah seorang teman yang sering diajak "curhat" oleh mereka bercerita ke saya.
Setelah "melayani" customernya, mereka sering bercerita sambil menangis. Menangisi nasib mereka, ada disana, "bekerja" untuk melunasi "uang antar" tadi.
Keingian untuk kabur sering sekali mendadak hilang, ketika mereka ingat, orang tuanya lah yang membawa mereka kesana, dan kemungkinan mereka dapat pulang ke rumah juga sangat kecil.
"Mungkin nggak ya ada cowok yang bener-bener terima saya apa adanya?" tanya salah satu gadis itu sambil bercucuran air mata.
To be honest, I don't know what to do for them right now. Pengen banget menolong, tapi belum mampu. Sekarang yang bisa dilakuin cuma menulis tentang hal ini. Dan berdoa supaya kehidupan mereka lebih baik.
Dan juga berdoa supaya para pria di luar sana, terutama yang senang "jajan" bisa sadar.
One day, I believe I can and will help..
Have a perfect day!
Please do help other people wherever and whenever you can..

Are you the right person?
It's a bloody Valentine's Day!
The very first time I'm writing this blog again since I landed in this very city.
Good to be home of course. Although I can't deny that I'll miss living abroad again for so many times.
I read an article on a magazine about 'meeting a right person but not in a right time'. It does suck.
But then again, I'll never be a thankful human being if 'complaining' is the only thing I am good at.
What I could and would do for now is just live life as it is. And embracing love as people said "good things come to those who wait".
I'll wait..for things, for someone to come to me in the right time. A right person in the right time. That's rhyme! beautifully.
Have a perfect (valentine's)day!
May you'll be with the love of your life soon and always.♡

Experiencing IMAX!
Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 10:00AM : Shrek The Final Chapter.
I was hesitating at first. Should I or should I not watch Shrek 4 in IMAX, since I am having a love-hate relationship with 3D cinemas.
Most of the times I experienced dizziness after the movie session. I remember last time I watched Avatar, which you might all know, the movie was quite long, I had a terrible headache after the movie. It was not caused by the story line, graphics etc. It because I chose to watch it in a 3D cinema not the standard one.
I am actually curious about IMAX, as I have been listening to people's comments about the upsides and downsides of it.
My decision to give it a go was perfectly right! I love the 3D there! HUGE screen, better quality 3D!
It is way better than the local cinemas where I normally go.
Although they have these new cinemas with 3D, but still, it is not the same. Even the atmosphere is different.
Thanks SS! it was such a lovely company for the earliest movie session I have ever had. ☺☺
Looking forward to watching the next movie(s) in IMAX!
Bisous.

Is that what a girl really wants?
Mellow Hellow!
3:21AM AEST.
But all I could think of is writing.
My best friend shared me her story about a guy who is currently dating another girl. To cut it short, my best friend is so into him. She told him how she feels about him. And the idea of telling him did not turn out to be a great one.
What else could make a good night turns out into a bad night. Except, realising that the person you love does not love you back, or, the person you love has changed into someone you do not want him to be, in this case.
It hurts of course.
I told her to sleep on it, do not think about anything for tonight. Full stop. But bestie, by the time you read this post, you should be smiling widely, knowing the reason behind my command.
The more I heard about someone else's stories, problems, etc. The more I am aware of how stubborn I am, how selfish I am.
Up until this moment of time, I am still expecting someone to be the same person as he was 6 years ago, which is impossible.
I always think, although we cant be together anymore, but, at least what I feel for him has not changed at all, therefore I am hoping him to be at the same stage as I am. But HELLOOOO!! Everybody is changing. And without him telling me, I could smell he is into someone else at the moment. That might be the reason why he has changed orrr, maybe because I told him that I am seeing someone at the moment.
D'OH.
See, how selfishly idiot I am. Deep down in my heart, I am still hoping, thing will go back to where it was 6 years ago.
But, having listened to my bestie's story, made me realised that, I really should stop expecting the impossible thing to happen. Coz, If I dont, I would not be any smarter than a donkey could be. - -"
Just concentrate with my current life. Wish him a happy life. Those are actually better to do.
You, if you read this, I just want you to know that, yes, I am jealous knowing that you are currently with / close with someone else. However, my jealousy would not go any longer than the time you spent to read my post (hopefully) :p
I am wishing you the best. For everything.
As for the girl, whoever she is. Please note, this guy is one of a kind. Do not take him for granted. Really should tell you that you are a lucky one. Must be a special girl chosen by a special guy.
Lastly. I miss talking to you.
I remember I told you about this although you were too hesitate to say anything. You said you were afraid. That is perfectly understandable to me. Actually, I was lying to you that day. I miss everything about you.
Something that is unspoken and will remain unspoken for a while.
Till I see you again.
